File Integrity Monitoring for PCI DSS in 3 Easy Steps FileIntegrityMonitoringforPCIDSS in3EasySteps CimTrak is an advanced file and system integrity monitoring platform offering real-time change detection capabilities that map and align with nearly half of the PCI DSS technical requirements. Many PCI environments lack integrity management because it is often per- ceived as being too expensive, too hard to install and manage, and produces too much “noise.” PCI DSS and file integrity monitoring fit together like a hand and glove. Sections 10.5.5 and 11.5 are perfect examples where change detection controls are identified and required: PCI DSS 11.5 “Deployfileintegritymonitoringsoftwaretoalertpersonneltounauthorizedchangesofcriticalsystemfiles, configurationsfiles,orcontentfiles;andconfigurethesoftwaretoperformcriticalfilecomparisonsatleast weekly.” PCI DSS 10.5.5 “Usefileintegritymonitoringorchangedetectionsoftwareonlogstoensurethatexistinglogdatacannot bealteredwithoutgeneratingalerts…” 1-877-4-CIMCOR|CIMCOR.COM FILEINTEGRITYMONITORINGFORPCI Security professionals know unexpected changes can mean that something bad is happening to your systems. With new forms of malware continuously being unleashed daily, much of it is classified at zero-day, and requires a robust integrity solution to detect such threats. As these threats are unsignatured, many will find their way through perimeter defenses and attempt to take up residence in your ni - frastructure. Each day seems to bring news of the latest breach and compromise of payment card data. Proactively being alerted to un- expected and unauthorized changes can mean the difference between eliminating a threat quickly or losing your customer’s personal information. Many people have been fallen victim to the notion that there is only one FIM product on the market. Because of this, organizations suffer through the extremely high costs of ownership and operation, scalability limitations and general complexity believing they have no other available options. CimTrakMakesFileIntegrityMonitoringEasy 1.INSTALL First, install CimTrak on the endpoints you wish to monitor. CimTrak quickly and easily installs on servers, workstations and POS sys- tems and supports a wide variety of operating systems including Windows, Linux, Mac OSX and UNIX 2.SETUP Next, set up policies for what you want to monitor. Don’t worry though, it’s quite simple. CimTrak includes library of base operating system templates, which you can apply to instantly monitor the underlying critical system files. This means with a few clicks, you are on your way to meeting 50% of the PCI requirements. From there, pick the other files on your systems that are critical to monitor. These are generally files associated with your payment card application and log files within your PCI environment. 3.CONFIGURE/CONNECT Finally, configure any alerts you would like to receive when unexpected and unauthorized changes occur, and optionally, connect CimTrak to any log management or SIEM solution that you may utilize. With granular user control, you can also set up user permissions to restrict certain operations and/or viewing certain systems or files. And if by chance a change got through by way of accident or malicious activity, CimTrak can manually or automatically roll-back those files/directories/devices back to any number of previous approved and compliance states. That’s it, all finished. You are now detecting changes to critical files and logs as required by PCI-DSS!

  • Technology Overview New Features Backupedge
    Technology Overview - BackupEDGE™ Introduction to the New Features in BackupEDGE 3.x Technology Overview BackupEDGE has a long history of providing reliable data protection for New Features many thousands of users. As operating systems, storage devices and BackupEDGE 3.x usage needs and tendencies have changed over the years, it has continuously met the challenge of providing inexpensive, stable backup and disaster recovery on a variety of UNIX and Linux platforms. Clients routinely find new and clever ways to utilize products. Storage devices have taken on new and exciting features, and incredible capacities. Products designed years ago had built-in limits that were thought to be beyond comprehension. Today, these limits are routinely exceeded. The need for data security is even more apparent. We’re constantly asking our To continue to meet the evolving needs of our clients, we are always clients what tools our asking what features of our products they find most useful, what products need to serve them improvements we can make, and what new requirements they have. better. We’ve used this knowledge to map out new product strategies designed to anticipate the needs of the next generation of users, systems and storage products. This has resulted in the creation of BackupEDGE 3.x, with a combination of internal improvements, new features and enhanced infrastructure designed to become the backbone of a new generation of storage software. Summary of Major Changes and Additions BackupEDGE 3.x features include: • Improvements to partition sizing, UEFI table cleanup after DR, and SharpDrive debugging (03.04.01 build 3). • Support for Rocky Linux 8.4 and AlmaLinux 8.4 (03.04.01 build 2).
